Synopsis

Lila McCann performs "To Get Me to You" in a polished late-1990s country-pop setting built around the song's romantic message. The video keeps the focus on McCann as she sings directly to camera, using soft lighting, close-ups, and gentle scenic imagery to reinforce the idea that difficult experiences have ultimately led her to lasting love. Rather than presenting a detailed narrative, the clip works as an intimate visual showcase for McCann and the hopeful ballad.

  • Don Was produced the recording, while David Campbell handled the string arrangements for the Hope Floats soundtrack.
  • The track runs for approximately three minutes and 50 seconds.
  • Although it was serviced to radio as a single, "To Get Me to You" did not enter the US country charts.

Lyrics

Well I, I still can remember times
When the night seemed to surround me
I was sure the sun would never shine on me
And I, I thought it my destiny
To walk this world alone
But now you're here with me
Now you're here with me

And I don't regret the rain
Or the nights I felt the pain
Or the tears I had to cry
Some of those times along the way
Every road I had to take
